PearsonMaron

Really cute homeware for children's bedroom from PearsonMaron

I love their factories...clouds & love ...rainbows..

Adam Maron and Quincy Pearson are full time artists and kitsch peddlers. They make work individually and together under the name Pearson-Maron.

Adam creates ceramic and mixed media dioramas depicting his child hood memories in the run down fruit tree laden San Fernando Valley. Many of his sculptures feature images of apocalyptic nightmares that are scattered with cryptids and seasonal holiday characters warning of impending doom.

Quincy is a painter and sculptor who is interested in the suburban pastoral and the broken heart. Her work explores the problematic point where nature and the suburbs collide with narratives that include anthropomorphic animals as eco-revenge warriors.

My heart is in the Arctic

Jacqueline Kari Bos' illustrations are just awesome.

I love all these shades of pink, all the details that make my mind fly and dream.

A second edition of her "I heart the Arctic" mini-book is just available in her Etsy shop.

It is inspired by stories of the arctic, Inuit myths, arctic cultures, icy landscapes and the infinite possibilities of the Aurora Borealis...

Such a lovely book to introduce Arctic and Inuits culture to children.
